PADLOC (Programmable
digital locking ignition)
This feature is provided to deter unautho-
rized use.
The function allows you to choose either
“START” or “LOCK” mode, as the situation
requires, much as you would use an ignition
key in a motor vehicle. If you have previously
chosen “LOCK” mode, the engine will not
start unless the right code is put in to select
“START” mode.
NOTE:
If you do not use the PADLOC system, it is
unnecessary to perform the initial setting of
the PADLOC. In this case, the “START”
mode is automatically selected.
PADLOC initial setting
1. Remove the cover 1 in the front storage
compartment. Disconnect the blue con-
nector2 behind the front storage com-
partment.
2. After the warning light turns on, press
the “MODE” button for at least 3 seconds
until the display shows “COdE.” You are
ready to set your code.

3. Select your four-letter code by pressing
the “A/SET,” “B,” or “C” buttons in a
desired sequence.
NOTE:
If you do not press a button for more than
10 seconds, the display automatically turns
off. This cancels the process of setting a
code.
4. After code setting is complete, the
buzzer will sound 3 times and the display
will show “SET.” Lastly, the display turns
off and the warning light turns on again.
After the meter has displayed this
sequence, connect the blue connector
again.
NOTE:
●Your own code is kept even if the battery
terminal is disconnected.
●If you forget your own code, or if you want
to change the code, do this initial setting
procedure again from the beginning.
Selecting “PADLOC” mode
Selecting the desired mode can only be
done after the initial setting has been done
and while the display is not lit.
1. Press the “MODE” button until the meter
displays the current mode, “START” or
“LOCK.”
2. With “START” or “LOCK” displayed,
press the “MODE” button continuously
for about 3 seconds until the display
changes to “COdE.”

3. Enter your four-letter code by pressing
the “A/SET,” “B,” or “C” buttons in the
right sequence.
NOTE:
If you do not press a button for more than
10 seconds, the display automatically turns
off. This cancels the process of selecting the
mode.
4. If the code entered is correct, the mode
will change from the previous mode to
either “START” or “LOCK.” Then the
mode display and buzzer will operate for
2 seconds.
NOTE:
●Once you select a mode, the mode will
not change unless you perform this mode
selection sequence again.
●If the wrong code is entered, the mode
display shows “ERROR” for 2 seconds
and the buzzer will sound 5 times. Then
the display returns to “COdE.”
